Designs track-2 lifecycle and persistence end-to-end: per-command
write-through to db+yaml+csv+history.log gated by the combined db
persistence logic with commit-db-last ordering; existence-only load
with explicit rebuild command; --resume CLI flag backed by
<data-root>/last_project; in-TUI list-with-browse picker; lock file
for single-instance enforcement; fatal-banner-then-quit failure
model (with --resume making restart cheap); fatal CSV row-load
errors with full diagnosis; YYYYMMDD-word-word-word temp naming
with display-name prettifier; collision-checked names for both
temp and user-supplied projects. Project name lives only on the
filesystem (not duplicated in YAML). ADR-0004 and ADR-0007 amended
in place. requirements.md and CLAUDE.md updated; OOS-6 (global
rolling history) tracked as deferred.
- New docs/handoff/20260507-handoff-1.md captures session
state, what's implemented, what's pending (ranked
recommendations for next moves), sharp edges, and a
smoke-test sequence.
- CLAUDE.md updated to reflect current reality: ADRs 0008-
0014 added to the decisions-at-a-glance list, the
"repository layout (planned)" placeholder replaced with
the actual layout, key invariants spelled out, deferred
list rebuilt from current requirements.md.
DSL data operations (ADR-0014):
- insert into T [(cols)] values (vals); short form
insert into T (vals) omits values keyword for friendlier
syntax.
- update T set ... where col=val | --all-rows; delete from T
where col=val | --all-rows; show data T.
- Value AST (Number/Text/Bool/Null) with per-column-type
validation in the executor: int/real/decimal/bool/date/
datetime/shortid each accept a documented literal shape
and produce friendly format errors naming the column.
- INSERT short form fills non-auto-generated columns in
schema order; auto-fills serial via SQLite and shortid
via the new generator (T2).
- `add column [to table] T: c (type)` -- `to table` now
optional.
Database:
- insert/update/delete via prepared statements with bound
rusqlite::types::Value parameters.
- InsertResult/UpdateResult/DeleteResult: writes return
rows_affected plus the affected row(s) only (not the whole
table), so users see exactly what changed.
- INSERT shows the just-inserted row via last_insert_rowid.
- UPDATE captures matching rowids up-front and fetches them
post-update -- works even if the UPDATE changed the WHERE
column.
- DELETE reports per-relationship cascade effects by row-
count diffing inbound child tables; UPDATE-side cascades
are not yet detected (would need value diffing).
- query_data formats cells (booleans true/false, NULLs as
None).
FK error enrichment:
- Now lists both outbound (INSERT/UPDATE relevance) and
inbound (DELETE/UPDATE on parent relevance) FKs from the
metadata, so RESTRICT errors point at the children
blocking the delete.
- RelationshipSelector has a proper Display impl -- "no
such relationship" reads cleanly.
Relationship display:
- target_table for AddRelationship/DropRelationship now
returns the parent (1-side); structure rendering after
add/drop shows that side's "Referenced by:" entry,
matching the `from <Parent>` direction of the command.
- [ok] summary uses display_subject so relationship
commands show both endpoints (`from P.col to C.col`)
rather than a single misleading table name.
- Auto-name format `<Parent>_<pcol>_to_<Child>_<ccol>`
(matches the from..to direction).
Output rendering and scrolling:
- Wrap-aware scroll: renderer reports both visible-row
count and total wrapped-row count to App; scroll math
caps against actual displayable rows. Long lines wrap;
the bottom line is always reachable; PageUp/PageDown work
correctly even after paging past the buffer top.
- Multi-line messages (FK error enrichment, cascade summary)
split into single-line OutputLines at creation time so
wrap/scroll math agree.
Runtime / events:
- New AppEvent variants for Insert/Update/Delete success
carrying typed result structs; DslDataSucceeded reserved
for show-data queries.
Docs:
- ADR-0014 covers data-op grammar, value model, --all-rows
safety, auto-show.
- requirements.md: C5 done, T2 done, V2 partial (basic data
view), V5 partial (show data added). New entries: C5a
complex WHERE expressions; H1 progress note for FK
enrichment; H1a (strong syntax-help in parse errors).
Tests: 200 passing (183 lib + 17 integration), 0 skipped.
Includes parser, type-validation, DB write/read, FK-failure
enrichment, cascade-delete propagation, focused-auto-show
behaviour, scroll-cap invariants. Clippy clean with nursery
enabled.
DSL:
- add 1:n relationship [as <name>] from <P>.<col> to <C>.<col>
[on delete <action>] [on update <action>] [--create-fk]
- drop relationship <name> | from <P>.<col> to <C>.<col>
- show table <name> for re-displaying a structure on demand
Database (ADR-0013):
- Rebuild-table primitive following SQLite's
ALTER-via-rebuild recipe (foreign_keys=OFF outside tx,
copy-by-name, foreign_key_check before commit). Reusable for
B2 (column drops/renames/type changes).
- ReferentialAction enum (no action / restrict / set null /
cascade); SET DEFAULT awaits column DEFAULTs.
- __rdbms_playground_relationships metadata table -- names,
auto-generated as <Parent>_<pcol>_to_<Child>_<ccol>.
- Type::fk_target_type() validation at declaration; friendly
errors for type mismatch, non-PK target, missing column,
duplicate name.
- describe_table populates symmetric outbound + inbound
relationship lists. drop_table refuses while inbound
references exist; outbound metadata cleaned up alongside drop.
App / UI:
- In-line cursor editing in the input field: Left, Right,
Home, End, Delete, Backspace honoring UTF-8 boundaries.
- PageUp / PageDown scrolls the output buffer; viewport row
count fed back from the renderer via App::note_output_viewport
so scroll is capped against the actual visible area
(regression-tested) and snaps to the bottom on new output.
- Failure messages quote the command portion ("verb target"
failed: ...) for visual clarity; RelationshipSelector has a
proper Display impl so "no such relationship" reads cleanly.
- Structure rendering shows References / Referenced by sections.
Docs:
- ADR-0013 covers naming, metadata table, symmetric view, and
the rebuild-table strategy.
- requirements.md updates: C3 (FK done), B2 (primitive in),
T3 (compound-PK FK still pending). New entries: I1a (cursor
editing -- landed), I1b (Ctrl-A/E and readline shortcuts --
pending), V4 partial scroll, V5 (show family), C3a (modify
relationship -- deferred).
Tests: 154 passing (140 lib + 14 integration), 0 skipped.
Clippy clean with nursery enabled.
First implementation milestone: Cargo project, dependencies,
and a minimal but functional TUI shell built on Ratatui +
Crossterm + Tokio in the Elm-style update/view pattern
(Candidate A from Phase 2/3 selection).
Includes:
- Three-region layout: items list (left), output + input + hint
(right), bottom status bar with mode-aware shortcuts.
- Two themes (light, dark) plus COLORFGBG auto-detect, per
NFR-7. CLI: --theme {light,dark}, --log-file <path>.
- Input modes per ADR-0003: simple (default), advanced, with
the `:` one-shot escape including immediate prompt reaction
("Advanced:" label, advanced border) and auto-inserted space
after a leading `:` in simple mode.
- App-level commands: `quit`/`q`, `mode simple`/`mode advanced`
(canonical list per ADR-0003 — remaining commands land in
later iterations).
- File logging via tracing, defaulting to ~/.rdbms-playground/
playground.log so the TUI is not corrupted by stdio.
Testing per ADR-0008:
- Tier 1: 29 unit tests covering input handling, mode switch,
one-shot escape, auto-space, output buffering, CLI parsing.
- Tier 2: 4 insta snapshots (default simple/advanced/light,
one-shot active) of TestBackend frames.
- Tier 3: 7 integration tests driving synthetic events through
App::update + render path.
All green: 36 tests, 0 failures, 0 skips. Clippy clean with
nursery lints enabled.
Captures up-front design decisions for RDBMS Playground:
stack (Rust + Ratatui + SQLite), input modes, project file
format, type vocabulary, undo snapshots and replay log,
sharing/export, and testing approach. ADR-0000 establishes
the ADR practice itself and mandates index upkeep alongside
any ADR change.
